Makeup Tips For Younger Looking Skin
Remember when we were 17 and we wearing makeup in order to look 21? Well, things have changed (at least for me). Today, when I apply my daily makeup, there is only one thing I desire - to look younger than I really am. When you start having those pesky wrinkles and dark spots, caused by years and years of lounging in the sun + drinking too many martinis, along with too many sleepless nights, bad food, skipping SPF and whatnot, it’s time to make some changes. And if you are in this phase of your life when your old beautifying rituals no longer seem to work, we are here to help with some useful tips on how to hide the years from your face and enhance your natural beauty.
Choose Your Skin Care Products Wisely
Okay, technically, this is not a makeup tip. However, I feel that I need to include this in the list because of the immense importance it has when it comes to applying makeup. If you have flawless skin, very light to zero makeup will be needed. With the proper skin care products, your skin will always be at its best, hence there will be less imperfections to hide and you can probably get away with just mascara, blush and a lip balm. So much time will be saved in the morning! You know what that means? More snooze time!
Speaking of good skincare - have you already ditched the nasty chemicals out of your life? We hope you have, because we truly believe that you don't have to sacrifice your heath in the name of beauty!
If you are still not sure whether natural and organic products really work, we'll let you try and see for yourself!
Invest In A Good Primer
Ever notice your makeup gets stuck into the fine and the not-so-fine lines? I know, I know – it’s sooo annoying! Thank god, years ago, some makeup genius invented the primer! YAY for that incredible "invention"!
If you don’t have a primer at hand, you can replace it with an additional layer of your favourite moisturizer – just make sure you apply it evenly and please don’t spare the product. Priming will help your concealer and foundation glide on smoothly + your makeup will stay longer.

The soothing powers of Aloe Vera leaf juice and Acai Pulp oil help to promote a healthy, fresh and radiant complexion so your skin will look its best, every day!
Consider Using BB Crèmes Over Foundations
I am one of those women with crow’s feet around their eyes. My dermatologist says I should have used eye crèmes when I was younger. I should’ve known better! But anyway, there’s no use crying over spilled milk… Because of these fine lines, whenever I use foundations, especially ones with thick consistency, by the middle of the day, it looks like there has been an earthquake on my face! Seriously! The foundation creeps into my fine lines and instead of hiding them, it accentuates them even more. Good thing I discovered the heavenly makeup product called BB Crème! BB Crèmes provide light to medium coverage and usually have thinner consistency compared to foundations, hence are less likely to make your imperfections pop out. Did I mention they also moisturize the skin, protect it from the sun and give your face super nice, healthy glow? What not to love about them?!

Use Different Concealers For Different Purposes
As I got older, the dark circles under my eyes also became more prominent. Sad but true. Because of that, I’ve become a concealer-holic. Hi, I’m Liza, I’m a concealer-holic. I have probably tried everything on the market - from drugstore brands to high-end, from concealer sticks to those in pots. It was really difficult to find the perfect concealer that would cover my dark circles andstay away from the wrinkles around my eyes.
After many years of trial and error, it turned out that just like foundations, thicker concealers are more likely to accentuate your wrinkles. The rule of thumb is, if the concealer is thick and pigmented enough to cover a blemish that means it shouldn’t be used under your eyes. Purchase a concealer with a thinner consistency just for the purpose of masking your under eye area.
Ditch The Dark Lippies
Another unpleasant age-related change is the thinning of the lips (inevitable as we get older). If you are a fan of dark lipsticks, I am afraid you’ll have to say “bye-bye” to them. Why, you would ask? First, because dark colours make your lips look thinner than they are and second, because they draw attention to the fine lines around your mouth. To make your lips appear plumper, choose a brighter pink or peachy shade then layer on some lip gloss on top.
Lip glosses and tinted lip treatments enhance the natural color of your lips and make them look fuller, by adding delicate shine and smoothing out the surface of the lips.
La Mav Tinted Lip Treatments were created to fight the visible signs of aging on the area that is most prone to forming wrinkles: the lips. Packed with Bio-Active ingredients including: CoEnzyme Q10, Argan Oil, Vitamin E and Sea Buckthorn Oil, these little treatments (which come in three delightful shades: berry, nude and sheer pink) are bursting with anti-aging and moisturizing properties and are sure to keep your lips super hydrated and healthy!
Don’t Contour - Highlight!
Kim Kardashian has made contouring the “in” thing and I must admit, it looks great on her. But, did you guys notice that when she doesn’t have makeup on, she looks almost 10 years younger?
If you’re already losing the plumpness of your cheeks, take it easy with the contouring. Instead, why don’t you try using a highlighter? Apply under your eyes, at the top of your cheeks, in the middle of your forehead, on the bridge of your nose, on your cupid’s bow, and lastly on your chin. I promise you’ll get an instant radiance boost and along with it, at least 5 years will "drop off" your face immediately!
